If Hip-Hoppers Were Politicians: 12 Artists Who’d Reign in DC

- By

Nas

House Speaker

Nas is no stranger to controversy and is not afraid to challenge the status quo, to say the least. In 2008 he joined ColorofChange.org to demand that FOX news end its pattern of racist attacks against Black America. In his last solo album, Untitled, he challenged a still-racist society, George W. Bush’s administration and continued to push his message of self-empowerment for the Black community. The music industry is not immune from his attacks either; last month, he sent a letter to Def Jam calling them out for holding up the release of his up-coming album. Nas is a grassroots artist at heart; so with these qualities, we think he would serve well as the House of Representatives Speaker.
